Apologies 1.1 Apologies were received from Tim Bennett, Julie Brociek-Coulton, Karen Buchanan, Ross Haddow, Ian Monson, and Mike Taylor. 2. Minutes 2.1 The minutes of the meeting held on 21 January 2015 were agreed and signed as an accurate record. 3. Declarations of Interest 4 3.1 There were no interests declared. 4. Items of Urgent Business 4.1 There were no items of urgent business. 5. Public Question Time 5.1 There were no public questions. 6. Appointment of Walking and Cycling Champion and Working Group 6.1 The Forum received the annexed report (6) which outlined that the Environment, Transport and Development Committee had voted to approve the appointment of Hilary Cox as Cycling and Walking Champion. The first task was then to convene a working group to steer the County’s strategic development of cycling and walking. Norfolk County Council, in partnership with other local authorities had submitted an expression of interest in becoming a Cycling Delivery Partner with central government. 6.2 It was reported to the Forum that it was a strategic partnership between Norfolk County Council and Department for Transport that was pushing a national initiative for walking and cycling. Hilary Cox had taken on the political ownership to the project and will lead the working group which would steer conversations and develop the projects. It would enable NCC to establish funding sources to increase capacity and push forward existing projects such as the Norwich Pink Pedalway. 6.3 The Forum heard that the initiative was an attempt to integrate cycling and walking into the highway network and segregate where appropriate to do so. 6.4 There was concern expressed at what was allowed on farm footpaths. Although cycling was to be encouraged, it should not be at the cost of creating problems for walkers. There was also concern that horse riders and drivers had been ignored from the project. Although the funding was from a stream that focused on walkers and cyclists, NCC were responsible for the whole network and therefore all users would be in mind. 6.5 NCC were engaged with Abellio to review the link with branch lines. It would be necessary to have enough space on the trains and the facilities available for cycles to make an effective integrated network. Abellio had been invited to a meeting to discuss this issue. 6.6 The Forum AGREED to note the report. 7. The Ramblers and NCC workshops 7.1 The Forum received the annexed report (7) which informed the Forum that a series of workshops had been held to inform a fresh, innovative and effective service approach to managing public access to the countryside and to ensure that is clearly represented in both the review of the Rights of Way Improvement Plan (2007 – 2017) and the new Countryside Access Improvement Plan effective post 2016. 7.2 The Forum heard how contact made by Ramblers (Norfolk) and CPRE (Norfolk) to the Assistant Director had led to the workshops being held. They expressed their 5 concerns about the maintenance of the Public Rights of Way, and how this was impacting on accessing the countryside. 7.3 The Forum heard that there had to be more creative ways of providing the funding. It was suggested by the Ramblers (Norfolk) that there was an inbalance between the funding of the Norfolk Trails network and the legal obligation to maintain other Public Rights of Way. CPRE (Norfolk) were pleased to take part in the workshops, as it had helped them to understand service delivery, limitations and frustrations. 7.4 The Assistant Director gave an assurance that the draft Action Plan that was being created would be acted on. 7.5 It was suggested to approach schools to encourage children to use Rights of Way, and to think more about the countryside so that they are more likely to help look after it. 7.6 The Forum suggested that repeat landowner offenders could be penalised through litigation and it may be useful to use forums of landowners to help pass the message through. There were those landowners, however, that go beyond their statutory duty, and it was important to praise those. 7.7 The Forum AGREED to note the reports made. 8. Review of the Rights of Way Improvement Plan – Update and Action Plan 8.1 The Forum received the annexed report (8) which outlined an Action Plan that had been produced and addressed the priorities for access set out in the Strategic Review of the Rights of Way Improvement Plan. 8.2 It was noted by the Forum that the unsurfaced roads were now on the interactive map, and this was appreciated by the Forum. 8.3 Reassurance was given to the Forum that the draft Action Plan that was being created by the Assistant Director Highways and Transport as a result of the workshops with the Ramblers (Norfolk) and the CPRE (Norfolk) would be integrated into the Strategic Review of the ROWIIP 8.4 There was concern expressed regarding the lack of horse riders mentioned, but it was confirmed that work would be done to support horse riders and this would be captured in the ROWIP Strategic Review’s Action Plan.

  • June 2019 Tour Report Norfolk in Early Summer with Nick Acheson
    Tour Report UK – Norfolk in Early Spring with Nick Acheson 10 – 14 June 2019 Norfolk hawker dragonfly Stone curlew Bittern Marsh harrier Compiled by Nick Acheson 01962 302086 [email protected] www.wildlifeworldwide.com Tour Leader: Nick Acheson Day 1: Monday 10 June 2019 Months in advance, when planning tours to see swallowtail butterflies, dragonflies, wildflowers and summer birds in June, you don’t give a great deal of thought to a wild storm hitting — bringing wind, heavy rain and floods — and sticking around for a whole week. But such a storm hit today as you all reached Norfolk for the start of your tour. We met in the early afternoon at Knights Hill Hotel and, despite the rain, decided to head for RSPB Titchwell Marsh. Here we did manage to see a number of very nice birds, including many avocets and Mediterranean gulls, plenty of gadwall, teal and shoveler, a female marsh harrier, a ringed plover, a Sandwich tern, a fleeting bearded tit and a flyover spoonbill. However probably the most striking aspect of the afternoon was the relentless rain, which soaked us through whenever we were foolhardy enough to step outside a hide. Day 2: Tuesday 11 June 2019 In our original plan we should have headed to the Brecks today, but we decided instead — given the forecast of heavy rain all day — to drive along the North Norfolk coast, in the knowledge that at Norfolk Wildlife Trust Cley Marshes we could at least shelter in the hides. When we reached Cley, it was indeed raining very hard so we sped to Bishop’s Hide, the closest of all the hides.

  • ( 279 ) Ornithological Notes from Norfolk for 1924. In
    ( 279 ) ORNITHOLOGICAL NOTES FROM NORFOLK FOR 1924. BY B. B. RIVIERK, F.R.C.S., F.Z.S., M.B.O.U. IN presenting my report on the Ornithology of Norfolk for the year 1924, I again acknowledge with grateful thanks the valuable assistance I have received from a number of correspondents who have sent me notes. I have also to record, with very deep sorrow, the loss of two most valued contributors to these notes in the Rev. Maurice C. H. Bird of Brunstead, who died on October 18th, 1924, in his sixty- eighth year, and in Mr. H. N. Pashley of Cley, who died on January 30th, 1925, in his eighty-first year. The past year was chiefly notable for the extraordinary number of wild fowl which visited our coasts during January and February, and for the record bags of Woodcock which continued to be made up to the end of the 1923-24 shooting season. Of these two remarkable immigrations I have already written elsewhere (Trans. Norf. <& Norwich Nat. Soc, Vol. XL, pt. v., 1923-24), so that I shall only refer to them more briefly in these notes. The winter of 1923-24, which was a long and bitterly cold one, may be said to have begun at the end of the first week of November, and lasted well into March. The first two weeks of January were marked by frosts and blizzards, a particularly severe blizzard from the S.E. occurring on the night of the 8th, whilst from February -12th until the end of the month snow fell nearly every day, the thermometer on February 29th registering 120 of frost, and another heavy snowfall occurring on March 3rd.

  • Local Area Guide
    Thornham - Local Area Guide Situated in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty roughly halfway between the popular seaside town of Hunstanton and the picturesque Burnhams, The Lifeboat Inn at Thornham is the perfect spot from which to explore the subtle beauty of the North Norfolk coastline. Whether you’re drawn here for the wonderful wildlife, attracted by the numerous walks, tempted by the sweeping beaches and desolate marshy landscapes, keen to indulge in local food and drink, or pursuing your favourite sport and leisure activities, there’s plenty here to keep you entertained. Here’s our pick of things to do in Thornham and the surrounding area. Villages & Towns The village of Thornham, once a prosperous harbour and smugglers’ haunt, is today a small coastal village separated from the sea by its atmospheric marshes. Home to the Lifeboat Inn and our sister pub-restaurant, The Chequers Inn, it’s a magnet for walkers, birdwatchers, artists and photographers with its characteristic landscape of salt water inlets and marshes. This stunning stretch of coastline starts at nearby Hunstanton, a family- friendly seaside resort complete with funfair, amusements, a long promenade and its famous stripy cliffs. Along the coast road in the opposite direction you’ll find The Burnhams, a group of seven small villages clustered around the River Burn, including Burnham Thorpe, childhood home to Lord Nelson, and Burnham Market, Norfolk’s answer to Chelsea-on-Sea. The historic fishing town of Wells-next-the-Sea is a charming destination where children hang crabbing lines over the jetty next to visiting yachts and a narrow-gauge railway ferries people between the harbour and the long sweeping beach, which is fringed with stripy beach huts and backed by cool pinewoods.

These wetlands were declared a nature reserve in 1998, and cover area of 100,000 hectares. Kaw-Roura is also a Ramsar site. 23 ©WWF-Canon/Roger LeGUEN Summary Wetlands are ecosystems that provide numerous goods and services that have an economic value, not only to the local population living in its periphery but also to communities living outside the wetland area. They are important sources for food, fresh water and building materials and provide valuable services such as water treatmentSum and erosion control. The estimates in this paper show, for example, that unvegetated sediment wetlands like the Dutch Wadden Sea and the Rufiji Delta in Tanzania have the highest median economic values of all wetland types at $374 per hectare per year.
